Korea Asphalt Institute
Chairman | Park Dae-wook (Gunsan University) |
---|---|
Introduction | To date, it is a field that uses a lot of asphalt left after being purified from crude oil, and it is a method of expressing physical properties by mixing and constructing heated aggregates and asphalt to reduce the temperature of the heating furnace to room temperature. Heating asphalt is a road pavement technology that has been used for a long time and has the advantage of being universal and stable, but it has potential problems such as greenhouse gas generation and fossil fuel consumption due to the process of heating all materials. |
Subcommittee on Asphalt at Room Temperature and Medium Temperature
Chairman | Choi Junsung (Induk University) |
---|---|
Introduction | Room temperature asphalt is a technology that mixes aggregates of room temperature and liquid binders containing unheated asphalt, and is a method designed to evaporate moisture and turn physical properties from the constructed mixture. Room temperature asphalt is a technology that has long been used in the United States, Japan, and Europe, and many research activities are still being conducted as eco-friendly road pavement materials, and the technology was introduced and distributed in Korea in 1999.Since the bought asphalt is not heated during the manufacturing process, it is an environmentally friendly method that does not generate greenhouse gases, and it is a field that has a lot of research value in the future. |
Subcommittee on Renewable Asphalt
Chairman | Noh Sung-hwan (Korea Regeneration Association) |
---|---|
Introduction | The asphalt mixture paved on the road is repaved at the end of its life, and the waste asphalt mixture generated at this time is partially composed of oxidized asphalt and aggregates, which is a recyclable material. Recycled asphalt is divided into heated and regenerated asphalt that heats materials according to the method of recycling Hye asphalt mixed matter, and room temperature regenerated asphalt using liquid binders containing materials and asphalt in room temperature. |
Special Asphalt Subcommittee
Chairman | Kim Hyun-wook (Posco Construction Co., Ltd.) |
---|---|
Introduction | Asphalt is a mixture of asphalt, which is generally a road pavement material, and has the primary function of vehicle operation. In addition to the primary function of road pavement, asphalt with special functions is called special asphalt. For example, by adding reform materials to asphalt, special flags such as drainage, permeability, and low noise are given to asphalt for road pavement, or bicycle roads and park trails used as materials in new fields other than road pavement are included. |
Oil and Waterproof Asphalt Subcommittee
Chairman | Lee Byung-deok (Korea Expressway Corporation) |
---|---|
Introduction | Asphalt is a solid at room temperature and needs to be processed into a liquid in order to use it, and for this purpose, asphalt emulsion or emulsified asphalt is made into fine particles and dispersed in water, and emulsified asphalt can be used as an adhesive, a waterproof agent for buildings or bridges. It studies asphalt penetration, weather resistance, cold resistance, and acid resistance in wood, massage, wool, and base paper, which are organic fibers for asphalt emulsifiers and various asphalt roughing agents. |
